- Sailor Pluto vs. Pluto/Hades and Chronos -Sailor Pluto is a very complex character who has links to more than one Hellenic Deity. She has powers over Time and Space itself, and is one of the most powerful Sailor Soldiers.Her ruling planet, Pluto, is known as the planet of the Underworld for it is named after the Roman god, Pluto. (Hades in Greek. I will use this name for the comparisons.) In Japanese, Pluto is named Meiōsei, which can relate to Sailor Pluto’s civilian name, Setsuna Meioh. The planet is mostly composed of ice, which can be seen surrounding Sailor Pluto during her transformation sequences. Hades is the King of the Underworld and God of the dead. Although Sailor Pluto has less connections to death than, say, Sailor Saturn, a few things still tie her to Hades. One of the most prominent or noticeable things would be her giant Keystaff. Hades had many treasures, one of which would be his royal sceptre - a magical death-dealing staff. Sailor Pluto uses her staff for all of her powers from fighting enemies to closing the Space-Time Door. This includes the aptly named attack Dead Scream, which forms a ball of pure purple energy to attack her enemies. Another treasure of Hades are the golden keys to the gates of the Underworld, so it is significant that Pluto’s staff is key shaped. Sailor Pluto was originally depicted with a belt of keys strung around her waist as well. The key that Chibiusa uses to travel to the 20th century from the 30th century is also from Pluto’s belt. Hades is also known as “The Unseen”, so it is a bit ironic that the other Scouts didn’t even know that she existed or had ever seen her until they all met at the Space-Time Door. The second deity that Sailor Pluto has connections with is Chronos, primeval God and personification of Time and Eternity (not to be confused with Cronus, counterpart deity of Sailor Saturn). Unlike the other Sailor Soldiers, it is questioned whether or not Sailor Pluto is fully human. She has been described as “a goddess, eternally guarding the Portal of Space and Time”, and it has been mentioned that she has “the blood of the god of time, Chronos running through her veins” (shown in the image above). It is a much speculated topic that she is a daughter of Chronos, and that is why she guards the Space-Time Door. She also has the attack Chronos Typhoon which hurls a cyclone of wind at the enemy. *there is no mention of her Garnet Orb here for I am going to make a full post on the Talismans at a later date.*Possible Offerings for Sailor Pluto: Garnet stones, silver coins, red wine.Possible Alter Pieces: Keys, Lilies, timepieces, Garnet/Dark red/Dark Green candles. -- source link
